Table 5: WattNode Models 

Current Transformers 

The WattNode uses CTs with integral burden resistors generating 0.333 VAC at rated current. The maximum 
allowable current is dependent only on the physical size of the CT, not the rated current. Exceeding the 
maximum allowable current may damage CTs.  

The accuracy of the split-core CTs is rated as 1% from 10% to 130% of rated current, the phase angle error is 
less then or equal to 2 degrees. The accuracy of the toroidal CTs is rated as 1% from 10% to 130% of rated 
current, the phase angle error is less than or equal to 1 degree. The following tables show the available split-core 
and toroidal CTs. The CT suffix (-yyy) is the rated current.
